USING QUIET CODES
This radio uses quiet (CTCSS) codes to
screen out unwanted conversations, even if
someone is transmitting nearby on the
same channel. When a quiet code is set,
the radio sends it every time
PTT
or
CALL
is
pressed and only responds to signals that
have the same code. Radios you plan to
use together must be set to the same code.
This radio has these quiet (CTCSS) codes.
To set the radio to use one of the codes:
1. Hold down
QUIET
until the
QUIET
indicator flashes.
2. While the indicator flashes, repeatedly
press
CHANNEL
or to
select the quiet code.
3. Press
QUIET
again.
QUIET
stays lit
and the quiet (CTCSS) code is set.
To turn off the quiet feature, press
QUIET
so
QUIET
disappears. To turn it on and use
the previously set code again, hold down
QUIET
so
QUIET
reappears.
